"Young man arrived quickly to discuss small projects. He was such a delight speaking with him. Before all was done he repaired a light fixture, removed some broken bulbs, repaired and reinstalled a closet shelf and trimmed the hedges around the property. Would Definitely Recommend!!"

"Jay Nobles and an associate refinished a bathtub and a shower for me on 05 Aug 19. Most of the work was completed the first day with virtually no impact on other parts of the house. Jay and his partner returned the following day to complete the job (the finish had to dry overnight). I found a sag in the epoxy finish applied to the shower and mentioned it to them when they returned to complete the job and they quickly repaired it and recoated that area without issue. Both individuals were extremely professional and courteous as well as conscientious about limiting dust and odors associated with the job. The price charged was very reasonable and I highly recommend SPR Bathtub Refinishing."

Deck Repair questions, answered by experts

Yes, deck pier blocks can be used as an alternative to traditional deck footings, particularly for small or low-to-the-ground decks. Unlike poured concrete and buried post footings, deck blocks don’t require digging or pouring. However, their use is regulated by local building codes, and they may not be permitted in areas prone to high winds, earthquakes, or hurricanes. Always consult your local building codes before choosing them for your deck project.

In most cases, your deck will need some form of deck footing to hold it in place, preventing moisture from rotting your wood and decreasing your deck’s lifespan. Concrete deck blocks are the most common type of footing for floating decks. Some homeowners use ground-level deck footings. For added security, consider digging and laying your ground-level footings below ground.

Decks require several inspections during and after the building process, but the specifics vary depending on where you live. Most areas mandate that decks comply with local building codes and safety regulations for the foundation, framing, and structure. Some pros recommend a footing inspection, which verifies the depth, width, and location of the various footings to ensure they offer enough foundational support.

While the terms deck and porch are often used interchangeably, they are two distinct structures. A porch is a covered structure, usually attached to the front of a home, that offers protection from the elements. In contrast, a deck is an open, uncovered platform, often attached to the back or side of a home. Because porches have a roof, they typically require less maintenance than decks, but both features need regular cleaning and repairs to stay in good condition.

Applying too much sealer to a deck might seem like extra protection, but it can cause more harm than good. Wood is a porous material with a limited capacity to absorb liquids. When you go overboard with sealer, the excess can't soak in and instead forms a film on the surface. This leftover layer is prone to peeling, cracking, and trapping moisture, ultimately defeating the purpose of sealing in the first place.
